inside joke

From a distance they saw her
enter the store;
One aisle to another
Pacing slowly, a regular customer.
The word spread; Then and there,
scattered, hushed laughter.
She after all had bought and worn
their hand-me-down from last season.
An inside joke quite popular
amongst the mall's mannequins.

Amit Charles B. aka Scribbler is an authentic Bangalorean (since 1982), who found and got hitched to his Muse recently. He now owns a scribble pad, a camera, a casual wardrobe and a detuned guitar with corroding strings.
And those of you who are interested in my work rather than my Apollo 13-attempt-at-a-funny- bio, flip the pages of my Scribble Pad.
